"Hurricane Dora's Winds Fuel Hawaii Wildfires, Forcing Evacuations and Complicating Fight"

Wildfires fueled by strong winds in Hawaii have destroyed multiple structures, caused evacuations, and led to power outages in several communities. The fires, concentrated in West Maui and an inland mountainous region, have been difficult to contain due to downed trees and power lines blocking access. Hurricane Dora, passing south of the island chain, contributed to gusts above 60 mph, grounding firefighting helicopters. About 13,000 customers in Maui are without power, and the fires are expected to spread rapidly due to dry conditions and strong winds.
